What I am getting at is that it would be awesome if you convince your 
management that npm support in Yocto is a problem that needs a better 
solution and work on it. Yes, this means you can't work on product 
development for quite some time; this is the price for using open source 
projects without a commercial support contract :)

My apologies if this is not the answer you were seeking.
